My deepest condolences to the family!  I am very sad to hear of the sudden passing of Michele.  I knew Michele from the horse world, as well as my two daughters, Maria and Catalina being taught the gospel by Michele. 
Michele always had an open house, inspiring and uplifting on all levels ! 
We miss her!

Michel was instrumental in my daughters' First Communion/Confession at Saint Francis in 2013.

Michel had a huge heart and a genuine love for Jesus and Mary.

May God accept her into His kingdom speedily.

Our deepest sympathy to all of the Goldman family, loved ones and friends.  We are so sad to hear of Michel’s passing.  Our hearts, thoughts and prayers are with you all at this difficult time.  I will forever be in gratitude to God for the gift of Michel.  For many years I worked with her as a lead Catechist and helping with Faith Formation.  I enjoyed our talks about the lessons of The Gospel, true history, the Sacraments and God’s real presence working in our lives.  Her devotion to Divine Mercy changed my life.  She inspired me to always learn more, pray more and help more.  The great blessing of teaching the faith and living our faith together is something we both cherish deeply.  I would like to say that Michel truly was one of my true mentors in learning, teaching and living our Catholic faith.  To truly live out the mission of evangelization with Michel is something I will always cherish. What a phenomenal legacy of love Michel has given us.  Always trusting in God.  I am comforted by The Holy Spirit and our great faith, that Michel is now with Our Loving Father in Heaven.  May Our Lord’s Light Eternal shine upon Michel and may she Rest In Peace.  In Jesus Name, Amen.  

Our Love and Deep Sympathy ~

Michel will always remain in my heart. She was a wonderful woman who taught me so much about teaching the Faith.  Her devotion was inspiring.  She we so kind and gentle with my son, and Vincent adored her.  He keeps the little plastic horse she gave him on his special items shelf in his room.  I will forever cherish the memories I have of her.  

Thank you, Michel for your countless hours of service.  An authentic and considerate person like you should be recognized and praised because you truly made this world a better place.  What a gift it was having known you.  

May you rest in the arms of the Lord who formed you from the dust of the earth. May holy Mary, the angels, and all the saints welcome you now that you have gone forth from this life. May Christ who was crucified for you bring you freedom and peace. May Christ who died for you admit you into his garden of paradise.

Michel was a great person!! I can't tell you how sad I am.  I am sorry that I won't be able to celebrate her life with you and your family as I am out of town but am thinking of you.  She is an angel!

It broke my heart to hear the news of Michel's sudden passing. I can only imagine what you, her beloved family, are feeling at this time.  I am so very sorry for your loss.  Michel was (still is!) one of the brightest, kindest, wisest and most loving women I have ever known.  She passionately loved her family, animals and home.  She also passionately loved her Lord and her Catholic faith. I will very much miss our conversations together in person. Thank goodness we still have the blessing of prayer together.  One of my last memories of Michel was visiting with her for the first time at her home this past May. We culminated the visit sitting on the patio eating popsicles together with Al! I was amazed at the beauty of their home and what she and Al had created together.  The love they shared and the beauty they created together is eternal.  Sanctuary was very important to Michel and she was a true sanctuary in so many ways: for her family, her animals-- especially her horses, her friends and her many, many students she taught in the faith.  What a beautiful legacy she has left for all of us. Vaya con Dios, Michel! Pray for us!  

After 6 pm Mass at St, Francis of Assisi, Castle Rock, one Friday a year or two ago Michel grabbed my arm and told me Jesus told her our granddaughter Carina was ready to receive Jesus in the Holy Eucharist.  Carina was in class taught by Matt, who is Deacon Matt now!

This was a pivotal moment for all involved.  Thank you, Michel for all the souls you have provided religious education and those who received the sacraments.

God Bless your family and friends, who are grieving and may your soul and all the souls of the faithfully departed Rest in Peace.  Amen

God Bless us All,
Marylew Esslinger 

My entire family wishes to express our deepest condolences to the Goldman family.
Michel, one of my closest and dearest friends, more like a sister of the heart.  I mourn your loss, my heart is broken. 
My whole family is saddened by your loss.  My grandkids loved Michel. She was so kind and patient with them, teaching  them all about her menagerie of pets  and about God. She had a gift with children which made her such a great teacher.  Her enthusiasm for the faith has inspired so many young people. Michel was always available to everyone that needed her. One could count on good counsel which was always in harmony with her deep faith.  She helped me so much, to better understand and deepen my own faith.   Her devotion to the Blessed Mother was inspirational, and I am so glad that she made pilgrimages to Fatima, Lourdes and Medugorje.  Her favorite phrase was “trust in God’” and she did.  She was a devoted and strong prayer warrior.   Michel, when I think of you I think if  2Timithy 4 7-8                

I have competed well, I finished the race, I have kept the faith. From now on the crown of righteousness awaits me, which the Lord,  the last judge, will  award to me on that day, and not only to me, but to all who have longed for his appearance.    

Michel,  I know you will continue to pray for all of us from heaven!  
I will forever miss you dear friend and I am eternally grateful for your love and friendship. 


My deepest condolences are with the Goldman family at this time. 
I met Michel when I was going through my youth group at St. Francis of Assisi, and she taught my confirmation classes. She was one of the most devoted people I have ever met that was always willing to make you feel welcomed and comfortable with her. 
The ways in which she taught and spoke made me feel at peace and brought out my connection with Our Lord. If it hadn't been for her and her dedication I wouldn't of been as committed as I am now. She was there when my mother passed, as well as Phyllis Schwarz and brought Father Ricardo. She did many things I could never do and will truly be missed. 
Until we all meet again Michel. 
With love. 

My dearest friend, Michel... 
my heart is broken. 
Fred and I, along with our children, send our deepest sympathies to the extended Goldman family. 
I have a sense of comfort knowing the holy person Michel was, as well as a devotee of Divine Mercy, that our Blessed Mother Mary held her tight as she traveled home to be with Our Lord. 
Jesus, I trust in You! 
I look forward to talking to Michel at great lengths as we used to, only now it will be through prayer, then listening intently for her ever-present,  spiritual wisdom that is a gift from God - a gift she shared so willingly with so many while here on earth. Well done, good and faithful servant!
May God's comfort and blessing be upon the Goldman family,
Phyllis and Fred Schwarz

I have so many fond memories of Michel from a 21 year friendship. I met her when she was riding in a clinic on Brat and Qurito.  She was extremely dedicated to her Catholic faith, her family, and the pursuit of horse training.   Over the years and many horses later we had developed a wonderful friendship. After riding lessons we would have coffee and share life’s highs and lows.  We had great theological talks, especially sharing a belief in healing and miracles. 
She was a bright spark of sun light with endless get up and go.  Michel would brave riding through her bodily ailments determined to continue. For years I had no idea what she suffered to be able to ride.  Her absolute faith carried her through everything.  One of her favorite things to say was “I have prayed about it and it’s in Gods hands now”.  
The memories are endless, we had good and bad incidents with cats, dogs, horses, chickens, people and gates left open.   I was privileged  to share wonderful moments when Michel had break throughs with her stallion Jastiso.  She was able to dance with him and it was thrilling to see her so happy. 
Michel was always feeding and caring for others. You could not go to her house without being offered food. She  and Al were very giving and sharing with their home and activities. 
So a bright ray of sunlight has passed from  my life with the loss of a dear friend.  There is a dark hole in me at the moment.  As I start to remember her smile, giggles and generosity I feel the light start to shine again.  With time it will be her sunlight that remains.
